Sunday night in Manchester, TN Wal-Mart!

Another non-photo-op day. After departing the Forsyth, GA, KOA at 9:45 a.m., we headed north along I-75, took the by-pass around Atlanta and by 1 p.m., we were in Tennessee.

We’re not sure where the fires are, but it was serious smoky all the way from Forsyth to Manchester, TN (about 60 miles south of Nashville) on I-24. We haven’t watched the TV news in several days so we’re not up on the local info. I guess we could get on the Internet and track down the source of the smoke, but I guess it’s not the important in our daily travel (as long as we don’t hit any detours!).

We were unable to get into the local KOA and didn’t see any other commercial campgrounds along the way, so here we are in the Manchester, TN, Wal-Mart SuperCenter. Not our first choice but we’re not alone: I count 3 other RV’s in the lot and it’s only 6:45 p.m. (Central Daylight Savings Time).

We’ve made reservations for a 4 night stay in Nashville – a spot about 2 miles from the Grand Ole Opry. Don’t know if we’ll make that or not, but Margaret has a spot near Nashville she read about and wants to visit. If we’re successful in finding it, I’ll let her tell the story.
